Soooo I still have 3 unread ami's, 3 months worth of unread Inyan's, and..... here is my Yomtov Reading material. I shall be reading til Shvuos most likely... It's a little sickening, is there *really* so much to write about??? has not everything yet been written? unbelievable.... Eveyrthing is so thick, expanded, with multiple additional supplements ...

(Der yid has 400+ pages!!!)

I would like to hope that there is what yet to write. At least the writer in me that may get out one day does.
But I do believe that we are rapidly approaching the point where there are no new recipes.

Lol! There will always be new recipes, just as there will always be new books and new songs.

I have my stack of library books as well.

I wasnt so impresssed with the binah yom tov edition not as thick as usual and a big chunk of it is recipes but it looked like their was a bunch of good supplements I just had a quick look through the pack and then put it away for yom tov!

There is an article about Yad Ezra V'Shulamit (focusing on Rav Lurie and why the organization was founded) in the Mishpacha mag.

It's actually the same page count (or more than) last year but divided over more supplements as opposed to one thick main and one supplement. This year there are 3 supplements and one main

I bought all those mags and a jewish novel- as I will probably get thru it all before the 2nd days of yom tov. I am what you may call a speed reader. I also promised myself I would leave the mags in their plastic wrappers until yom tov, but temptation gave in and I flipped thru everything about an hr ago........I cant wait to start reading.............!!

My teen age son pretty much just said the same thing. He said there's so much written but is there really so much that's worth writing. (Or maybe he means, reading.)

I have the Binah (subscription) and my husband just called me at work to tell me that he got me Ami and Mishpacha Pesach issues. I'm looking forward.

Other than that I have Innocent Deceptions and Desperate Deceptions to re-read as well as chilling with parents and siblings.

Well I have about a dozen articles I desperately want to write and get published, but I cant seem to find my muse. By the time the house is quiet and I can gather my thoughts to write, I'm exhausted.

When I saw the title I knew it was you who posted it along with pictures. I will get all that almost along with the jp, mishpacha, and Yated. I also bought a fat new novel too.
